Did I say otherwise? Is there any doubt in your mind as to why they went after him though? How many other hedge fund managers do you know of that have ever seen the inside of a jail cell?
Not why he was prosecuted. Why he was even considered for prosecution in the first place. Some of the investors "harmed" by Shkreli admitted on the stand that their investments with him were the best they've ever made. Dude is also obviously smart and talented, and while he might have bent the rules here and there, as far as I can tell no harm has come to anyone in the end. So what this amounts to is little more than a witch hunt. The "aggrieved" party has made a lot of money.
But my comment was more about a peculiar difference in the treatment of two people in similar circumstances based seemingly on whether their relatives are high ranking government officials. Surely this should have seen some more scrutiny from the "free" press, no?
